@orsenior - thanks for that information - that is completely consistent with last year’s pattern of Friday releases up to the last Friday before Christmas …
@orsenior I called this afternoon at around 1:15 and the person who picked up said it would be in January… When/who did you call?
@cgreen12 My friend called at 1:15 PST. Undergraduate Admissions Office, I believe. Not sure who picked up, but it was a lady, and she said that “a few” decisions would be coming out every week. She even suggested to check MyStatus on Monday rather than Friday. No specific information other than that.
@orsenior Ah, I see. I called at 1:15 CST, to the Undergraduate Admissions Office as well. However, a man picked up and said that I should expect the next “admissions wave” to be in January. That’s all the information I received. But again, they could just be saying January just to hold back on people expecting their decision and being disappointed when they don’t.
I am so sorry to burst bubbles, but I did find the welcome once I clicked around and I logged into the portal again etc. It wasn’t there until recently for everyone?
But… I thought I clicked around pretty good earlier today and was not asked to login again and didn’t see that new page. Think I will join the cray train and hope that it was added this afternoon…
@Texasmom no apologies!!! glad to hear it!
Thought I’d join the fun and crazy train, too. I clicked thru the housing app status steps again (already did this last Aug), and at step 3 Application Complete page …at bottom has “Continue to Contract Offer” button. Clicked but nothing happens. But you know, contract is only offered to admitted students so…alright, alright, alright as someone would say. Wishful thinking, I know! This is killing me!
Aren’t we getting creative with ways to waste more time while waiting for the real news … lol
I would be embarrassed if anyone checked into how many times I refreshed the status page. And I am so tired of this sentence: “Your application for admission is in review.”
@atxmomof2 - no kidding … i hope that tomorrow afternoon brings us all good news …
At this point I’m just looking for a decision either way so we can move forward.
is there any way to find out how many people are participating in this forum ?
@atxmomof2 it brings back memories of this for some of us lol https://www.scarymommy.com/refresh-refresh-refresh/
@srparent15 OMGosh! thanks for sharing the link. I have never seen that, but I can so relate on both the camp and refresh experience! I remember stalking the FB group of the summer camp hoping to get a glimpse of him on photos. I keep reminding my kids before summer camp to try to get in the photos so I can see them! And now – refresh, refresh, refresh!!! Are we there yet?!?
@gingytx I know, right? My daughter heard from Mccombs last week but is waiting to hear about a BHP interview and we had been checking non stop before. I actually forgot about her other applications once she got into UT even though she’s going there, we still want to know about the others which haven’t yet come out.
But the constant checking definitely made me think back to this refresh cartoon! The waiting is agony so hang in there for those of you gojng through this.
So I called the admissions office regarding another matter and also asked them if decisions would be announced to tomorrow. Person who took the call said that there will not be any. I don’t believe him because he had to check with someone else regarding my other question as well. Keeping fingers crossed.
@dday666666 ours says the same.
@txlove same…So now I’m panicking that he is supposed to do something in addition, but his DONE box is checked.
@atxmomof2 - This just made my day. I’m concerned that their web person can track how many times I log in and that he won’t be admitted due to crazy stalker mom. Ha ha!
what an incredible crashing sound we are all going to hear if tomorrow comes and goes without any activity - UGH …
